Anything but Coffee?

See I am stuck here at Subang Sky Park (Nice name, typical Malaysian way of naming things and places I know). So why not a cup of coffee and throw in a 'Starbucks' book as well. What's better to do in starbucks but a toffee and a book? Yeah, Internet.

The book says opposite. Starbucks should not have WIFI.

See I took the courage to approach a middle aged man beside me by the couch. Started with a rant about our retimed flights. His driver sent him too early and mine's retimed to 3 hours later to another place.

Slowly the conversation evolved into a more constructive one, we talked about work and all.

People say I talk alot. Yes I do, in fact, that's the only thing I enjoy out of so many 'human interactions'.

Ideas spark when humans talk. All of a sudden you get inspiration and motivation to do things you never thought you would.

People come to starbucks not to talk anymore, like how it used to be. Everyone here including myself has a laptop on their table (most tables are singly seated) and earphones snugged into their ears they wont even notice if a plane crashed next to them.

I think people should talk more. =)

Today, I have accidentally made friend with a Senior Manager from a company I may have to work for next year. We never know, if we choose to keep quiet all the time.
